Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 egg
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 6 tablespoons white sugar
• 1 pinch ground nutmeg
• 2 tablespoons turbinado sugar
• 1 cup peeled and diced fresh peaches
• 1 stick unsalted butter, frozen
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon baking soda
• 0.5 cup heavy cream
• 0.5 teaspoon ground cardamom

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Grate in 1/3 of the butter using the large holes of a box grater. Toss lightly with your fingertips until coated with flour. Repeat twice more with remaining butter.

Step 2

Mix flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, salt, cardamom, baking soda, and nutmeg together in a large bowl.

Step 3

Bake in the preheated oven until golden, about 18 minutes. Place baking sheet on a wire rack and let cool.

Step 4

Gather the ingredients. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with a silicone mat or parchment paper.

Step 5

Whisk cream, egg, and vanilla extract together in a small bowl with a fork. Pour over the flour-butter mixture.

Step 6

Mix with a fork just until large clumps of dough form. Gently fold in peach.

Step 7

Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Bring together and gently pat into a 9-inch-long rectangle about 1 inch thick. Sprinkle turbinado sugar on top; press gently to adhere.

Step 8

Cut into 8 triangles with a bench knife or sharp knife. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet.
